Becky Mayes (addicted2itall) When you are reading a suspense, there is likely going to be dead bodies, you know that is coming. The blurb on this book portrayed it as a mystery, which it was, but I certainly was not expecting all the other stuff. You get warnings on television, movies and even music, but never on a book. I would have liked to have known before reading it.

Leona (mnleona) | 179 comments It is 36* and sunny. I saw geese on the lake yesterday so ice is going. I also saw a robin on Tuesday.
Have a good month of reading.

"It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade."

I love that quote, Dorothy.

message 1862: by Groovy (new)

Groovy Lee Today is Alexander Graham Bell day, which I didn't know existed. Anyway, he would be amazed at how much his invention has changed from that big, clunky cylinder to the streamlined product with a camera in it that you can put in your pocket and carry around. He would also be amazed at how much some of them cost--LOL.

I don't think he'd be amazed at how much people depend on them, though.

I did not know that. Thanks for the information. He would be pleased I am sure.

Groovy Lee For everyone who lives in the US, don't forget to spring your clocks forward this weekend. Ugh! I really wish they would get rid of this outdated method.

Have a safe weekend, Everyone!

Groovy Lee YaaaaY!!!! It's almost time to throw off those coats and heavy shoes. Just slip into some nice sandals and go about your day.

It's also time to get into those gardens once the frost season has passed. I'm so glad winter is going away I don't know what to do...

Happy Birthday.


message 1879: by Leona (new)

Leona (mnleona) | 179 comments From Sunday through Tuesday, I had snow and some rain and some melting. This is the most snow I have had all winter. Because of the melting and rain it is hard to tell but over 10". Ice is forming again on the lake but should melt in a couple of days when it gets warmer. The ducks and geese are swimming with the snow falling on them. Yesterday and today, we have sun and the temp is now at 16*F.
Have a good day.

Groovy Lee Enjoy the Solar Eclipse, everyone, who will be able to see it. We have our glasses ready and waiting. I just hope it won't be too cloudy.


message 1891: by Kristie, Moderator (Retired) (new)

Kristie | 5928 comments We have our glasses as well. Unfortunately, it's supposed to be perfectly clear out on the 7th and very cloudy on the 8th. We are hoping for the best as well. Good luck to you, Groovy.


message 1892: by Groovy (new)

Groovy Lee You, too, Kristie:)

kaija | 1 comments should i read november 9 or it starts with us?


message 1894: by Groovy (new)

Groovy Lee The eclipse was absolutely, AMAZING! It started out very cloudy, but we could see the eclipse through pockets of clouds. Almost to the end, the clouds were gone, so we were able to enjoy the rest of it.

I hope everyone else got to enjoy it, too.

Kristie, how was your experience?


message 1895: by Kristie, Moderator (Retired) (new)

Kristie | 5928 comments It was great, Groovy! It was a lot less cloudy than expected. I used my very fashionable paper glasses with my cell phone to take a pic and it came out pretty good. It sort of looks like a moon. lol


message 1896: by Groovy (new)

Groovy Lee Hope everyone is doing okay.

I think it's Earth month. This year, for my part, I'm planting wildflowers, among other plants, in the front and back yard. I hope they flourish.

Kristie, are you going to plant your vegetable garden this year?

Have a safe weekend, Everyone!


message 1897: by Kristie, Moderator (Retired) (new)

Kristie | 5928 comments I'm not, Groovy. I have my berries and a flower garden this year. The bees loved my flowers last year and we have already seen a few come back this year. We have a lot going on this spring, so I thought my veggie garden would be too much. Although, maybe I'll get a pepper plant from our local nursery. I've never grown one before and I think they're pretty easy. Maybe I'll do that this weekend now that I'm thinking about it. :)
